[TheForge] RE: Starting up

[Washington, Aubrey O.]

Andrei,
Welcome to the list and to smithing for fun.  Please let us know how your visit to the village blacksmith goes.  Even if he doesn't have time to teach you the tricks of the trade, he may let you just stand around an watch him work.  If he likes you, he might answer your questions.  If he lets you come back the next weekend, he may even let you hand him stuff while he works.  You never know where it could lead.
 
Aubrey

First of all great many thanks for your help ,

Sadly I am living in Romania, moreover in downtown Bucharest (which is the
capital) so the first real blacksmith I can find is some hefty kilometers
away in a village that still holds one , and probably working for a profit
and less willing to spend time teaching me the tricks of the trade. I will
try this option however probably in week-ends.

I will look for ABANA site and check on local meetings - hope something
comes up.

And yea , as you said I think I better start practicing the hammer swing ,
as I am not exactly the "strong" type - better build some power in that
mouse/keyboard hand :)

Thanks a lot - I will continue to brag about my progress here  ,

Good day to you all,
Andrei
